Excellent language learning app
Duolingo has definitely impacted communications with others who speak different languages. Comprehension of written communication has seen the most positive change, followed by the ability to speak and then listening/understanding verbal communication. I believe this is due to the nuance of individual speakers' accents and phrasing. Overall, the learning attributable to Duolingo is significant.
PROSI highly recommend Duolingo. There's a free option available, which includes adds and some limited features, yet the Pro option is excellent. This is definitely a "get out of it what you put in to it" tool, and if utilized regularly, users will learn a language. Lessons focus on "useful" learning i.e. key words and phrases vs. conjugation of verbs and other grammatical elements. Those things are incorporated in to the lessons, yet the user almost doesn't notice because it's so well integrated.
CONSThe sequencing of some of the lessons seems a bit strange sometimes, as why one topic comes after another and not before can be odd. However, it's minor and perhaps even more of a preference.
Reason for choosing Duolingo
There's more latitude for users to pace the learning based on their own needs/interest and abilities.

Duolingo: an efficient language learning software
my experience with Duolingo has been all right. It gave me the opportunity to learn a new language without paying for language classes which is good.
PROSI like Duolingo because it is a great language learning tool. I used to learn to improve my French language when I was studying at the university. I like how it is free and so easy to use. I don't have to spend any money on language classes due to this app. I also love its gaming format. It makes learning French and Spanish fun for me without the pressure of learning in a class. I also like its compatibility with mobile devices. I open it on my android phone and take my lessons for the day irrespective of my location. Also, its daily reminders help me stay committed to learning and not forget my learning tasks.
CONSWhile Duolingo is a great language learning app, I find the pop-up ads a nuisance. Another thing I dislike about it is that it lacks the most important element for learning a language, which is; face to face interaction. That is crucial for learning your target language. Also, I would not recommend Duolingo if you want to advance to a native level in your target language. I have finished all my French lessons on the app. Although my French improved tremendously, I am still far from being on the level of a native French speaker.

Learn a New Language
I enjoy using Duolingo. It is a great app to learn the basics of a language.
PROSSuper to easy to use and access anywhere and everywhere. I use Duolingo even on my downtime as it is easily accessible on my smart phone. There is also a large variety of languages to chose from. I have a cousin who learned the basics of Italian before heading to Italy and it made her experience in Italy fun because of it.
CONSYou obviously will not become fluent in a language just by using Duolingo but it is a great app to use to understand the foundations of a language.
